Cryptic SECEDIT output - how to troubleshoot?

[PreviousPoster]

We have a security template that we are tyring to apply using secedit.exe. The template configures some settings to make DCOM communication between apps on two different PCs possible. The template contains:

[Unicode]
Unicode=yes
[Version]
signature="$CHICAGO$"
Revision=1
[System Access]
EnableGuestAccount = 1
[Registry Values]
MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa\Every oneIncludesAnonymous=4,1
[Privilege Rights]
SeDenyNetworkLogonRight =

When we run secedit with it we get this cryptic error msg:

secedit /configure /db ".\VREnterpriseSetup.inf"

Error 1208: An extended error has occurred.
Error opening C:\Documents and Settings\astibich\Desktop\DCOM Setup\VREnterpriseSetup.inf.
----Configuration engine was initialized with one or more errors.----


----Un-initialize configuration engine...

Any ideas on what we are doing wrong?

It sounds like you are experiencing a corrupt SecEdit.SDB

Use the SecEdit.EXE to validate ( XP SP3 ships with v5.x.y.5510 I believe, there is a problem with the XP SP2 version ).
